CAMPUS MAP

=======================================

Welcome to the Jannese Davidson Memorial Tournament, offering all 11 AFA/NFA/Phi Rho Pi speech events in two patterns, two single-person debate events (IPDA and NFA), and NPDA Debate. Students can enter a maximum of 3 speech events per pattern, and one debate event in each pattern.

The Davidson is part of a Speech and NPDA Debate swing, the Golden Eagle Classic. Please see the link to the right to register for the Eagle. To that effect, student can enter in the following combinations:
1. Full Service -- Students can enter NPDA Debate (Fri/Sat), IPDA/NFA-LD (Sat & Sun), and up to 6 speech events (Sunday).
2. Speech Swing -- students can enter up to 6 speech events at both speech tournaments (Golden Eagle Saturday, Davidson Sunday). This means that they are unable to compete in any debate events.

The tournament will be offered in-person, and without entry fees. However, there are no uncovered entries allowed. One speech judge can cover 5 slots per pattern, and one debate judge can cover 2 NPDA teams and 3 single-person debate entries.
